Behold the power of the human voice...
Based in Orlando, FL, 4:2: Five has been shattering the a cappella stereotype since 2000 with their powerful performances across the U.S. Evolving from a street corner barbershop sound, and drawing on funk, rock, jazz, and blues-4:2:Five is unlike any musical experience on Earth, recreating an entire instrumental band with nothing but 5 mics and 5 voices. "Challenging the boundaries of contemporary music is what this group is all about," says Geoff Castellucci, "nothing we do is ordinary". Amongst a musical landscape of imitators and manufactured acts, 4:2: Five is blazing new trails and winning the hearts and imaginations of audiences big and small and of every race, creed, sex, and age.
To categorize their approach to recording as innovative would be an understatement. The clarity of their harmonies, melodies, and the interdependence of their vocal performances render 4:2: Five akin to a professionally orchestrated band, minus the instruments. Their focus on the combination of rhythm and melody where the latter takes precedence, but does not overshadow the former, have helped to create some intensely infectious tunes, which are sure to open the door for a cappella to gain a more prestigious commercial foothold on the musical marketplace. Songs such as "Look at Me" and "Why do You" epitomize the originality and surprising lyrical depth of this talented Fivesome. For 4:2:Five, the future is now, with their current album "EP" being sold across the nation at live performances, and their latest CD, "Unstoppable" slated for release early this winter.

Wow! Nice! Talk about talent :)
author: Lana Romanoff"Look at me" the first track is one of the best a capela dance floor tunes out there! I couldn't believe it when I heard it. I had to play it several times in a row - coudn't get enough, had to hear it again and again. Very catchy hook and top notch performance! It's BAD!!!!! Yeah! Other tracks are good too, but "Look at me" got my attention straight. Boys II Man come to mind when listening to these boys.
